Overview

About 56 Oval Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

56 Oval Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Norwich (NR5 0DG). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2012–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £273,000 sits 54.2% above the 2014 sale of £177,000. On the market in December 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 56 Oval Road is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR5 0DG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 56 Oval Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 56 Oval Road was lodged in October 2014 at band D and expired in October 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 56 Oval Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NR5 0DG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
56 Oval Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
